False Alarm!
SC War Flag Still AWOL
Unless canaries can climb towers, and break in windows, they had nothing to do with the disappearance of the war flag.
Missing since Monday morning, following the Illinois grid victory, the flag was reported to have been found, neatly folded in Dr. Metfessel’s office early yesterday. But it proved to be one used last year and the new
one is still lost.
Further investigation showed that two small windows in the tower had been broken, apparently by the thief or thieves. Access to the tower can be made from the outside, observers state.
Among the suspects originally in question were a flock of canaries with which Dr. Metfessel has been experimenting, but they were exonerated on the discovery of the shattered windows.
